Lingers

You unselfishly
offered me a taste
promising me its sweet
and delicate ecstasy

I drink it
without hesitation
believing your love to be as pure as eternal hope
but it feels
as if it were lye

So now
I know
you will
you have
and always will
offer me a poisonous elixir
that burns just ever so softly

Killing me
as gently as the taste of bitterness
my heartache lingers
my hope fades
and I
become the ghost of love’s past
